Skin Tightening
RADIO FREQUENCY SKIN TIGHTENING
​
Radio frequency (RF) energy is a modern technology used for non-surgical skin tightening in the early stages of
aging (looseness, loss of elasticity). It is a technology of high-frequency electric current, which delivers thermal
energy to the deeper layers of the skin. Heat stimulates tissue contraction and collagen synthesis. The overall result is thicker, radiant skin, reduced depth of wrinkles.
​
WHAT ARE THE BENE FITS OF RADIO FREQUENCY?
​
-
Painless with no downtime
-
Rejuvenates skin
-
Immediately shorten existing collagen fibers, thereby creating an immediate skin tightening/lifting effect
-
Stimulates fibroblasts to produce new collagen and elastin fibres, thus triggering a separate skin tightening effect
​
With the deep Radiofrequency Energy, the dermis and subcutaneous layer are heated simultaneously, forcing
collagen fibers to contract. The contracting fibers pull on and tighten the skin, creating an immediate effect.
Fibroblasts' metabolism also increases, producing new collagen fibres, which last long-term. Most of the RF
energy enters the deeper dermal layer, causing the dermis to thicken.
​
This decreases wrinkle depth and leaves skin firmer with increased, lifted contour. As a result of radiofrequency's
skin-stimulating effects, original collagen proteins become more vital to increase the production of new collagen
proteins.
​
Positive effects:
​
-
Immediate reduction of existing collagen fibers, which helps to instantly tighten the skin.
-
Stimulation of fibroblasts to produce collagen and elastin, thereby helping to tighten the skin.
-
Activation of lipid metabolism, rapid breakdown of triglycerides.
​​
Indication:
-
flabby skin;
-
ptosis (omission) of facial tissues;
-
"Blocks" - drooping areas of skin and hypodermis (subcutaneous fat), which change the shape of the oval
-
face;
-
"Goose feet";
-
deep facial wrinkles in the nasolabial triangle, on the forehead;
-
photoaging;
-
flabby skin on the body after childbirth or weight loss;
-
stretch marks;
-
comprehensive fight against cellulite.
​​
Multi- and tripolar manipulators allow work at greater depths, and the radio wave reaches subcutaneous fat.
Impact RF on PJK stimulates fat breakdown processes (lipolysis). Multipolar is used for the body, and tripolar is
used for the lower third of the face in the fight against the double chin and if the client desires to get the effect
of a "slim face". The bipolar applicator has a limited depth of impact - 2 mm. Deep is the dermis on this one,
which will boost collagen production.

Frequently Asked Questions
These are some of our most commonly asked questions about Abigon PRO Treatments
What is cavitation, RF, and vacuum treatment?
Cavitation, radiofrequency (RF), and vacuum treatments are non-invasive aesthetic procedures that use advanced technologies to target and address various skin and body concerns. Cavitation targets fat cells, RF stimulates collagen production, and vacuum therapy enhances lymphatic drainage and circulation.
Abigon Pro treatment can target and reduce localized fat deposits, such as love handles, abdomen, thighs, and arms, helping to create a slimmer and more contoured appearance.
Cavitation with vacuum and RF can effectively reduce the appearance of cellulite by improving blood circulation, promoting lymphatic drainage, and smoothing the texture of the skin.
How does cavitation work?
Cavitation technology uses focused ultrasound waves to disrupt and break down fat cells in the treated area. The ruptured fat cells are then gradually eliminated by the body’s natural processes.
What does RF do for the skin?
RF treatments deliver controlled heat energy to the skin’s deeper layers, stimulating collagen production. This leads to skin tightening, improved texture, and reduced wrinkles.
How does vacuum therapy benefit the treatment?
Vacuum therapy enhances lymphatic drainage, reduces fluid retention, and improves blood circulation. It can also help with tissue manipulation and make treatments more comfortable for clients.
Is the treatment painful or uncomfortable?
Most clients find the treatments to be comfortable, with little to no pain. Sensations vary, but some describe it as a warm massage-like feeling. Technicians can adjust settings to ensure comfort.
How long does each treatment session typically last?
Treatment sessions can vary in duration, but they generally last between 30 minutes to an hour, depending on the area being treated and the specific technology used.
How many sessions are usually needed to see results?
The number of sessions required varies depending on individual goals and concerns. Generally, a series of sessions (typically 6-8) spaced a week or more apart is recommended for optimal results.
Are there any side effects or downtime?
Side effects are usually mild and temporary, such as redness or slight swelling. There is typically no downtime, and clients can resume normal activities immediately after the treatment.
Who is a suitable candidate for these treatments?
These treatments are suitable for individuals looking to address concerns such as localized fat deposits, cellulite, sagging skin, and skin texture irregularities. A consultation with a qualified professional can determine suitability.
How long do the results last?
Results are long-lasting, especially with proper maintenance. However, factors like lifestyle, diet, and aging can influence the duration of results, making periodic maintenance sessions beneficia
